| geirdal | autumna, I like your image alot, and yes it is better a little bit brighter | 08:10 |
|---|---|---|
| sakrecoer | hi guys! i was reading you on my pocket computer yesterday, but no time to jump in the conversation. | 08:31 |
| sakrecoer | hard choice, both images are awesome! | 08:31 |
| sakrecoer | the lower one is cooler, the upper one is... :D | 08:32 |
| sakrecoer | better | 08:32 |
| geirdal | agree | 08:42 |
| sakrecoer | :) | 08:43 |
| sakrecoer | on mobile the word 'ubuntustudio' breaks the formatting... | 08:45 |
| sakrecoer | maybe it should be 2 images next to eachother, so that they land on top of eachother when the view port is small? | 08:46 |
| sakrecoer | or a space between with css ala 'letter-spacing:-Xpx' | 08:46 |
| sakrecoer | images would be easier to format with.. | 08:47 |
| geirdal | let me see it on mobile | 08:47 |
| geirdal | brb | 08:47 |
| sakrecoer | if the img tag has 'alt=' attribute it will work for searchvrobots and blind people.. | 08:49 |
| geirdal | yes it will :) | 08:50 |
| autumna | sakrecoer I didn't have a chance to fix the responsive version of the page yet | 10:51 |
| autumna | in terms of images missing alts, where are we missing them? :) | 11:01 |
| autumna | btw geirdal both of the images are yours. the top one simply is the bottom half of it rotated and with some color changes. ;) | 11:25 |
| geirdal | autumna, I like yours better :) | 11:39 |
| autumna | :) | 11:40 |
| sakrecoer | autumna: i wasn't saying images were missing "alt", i ment that if it is easier to format the title with images than to format it with text, we should use the "alt" atribute | 12:25 |
| autumna | OOOOH | 12:26 |
| autumna | I am happy with either solution | 12:26 |
| sakrecoer | :) | 12:28 |
| sakrecoer | re: community showcase gallery thing... | 12:56 |
| geirdal | hi | 12:56 |
| sakrecoer | https://soundcloud.com/groups/ubuntu-studio | 12:57 |
| autumna | ok so moving the discussion about community and a gallery here | 12:57 |
| autumna | as summary geirdal thinks we should have a gallery of featured work, sakrecoer and autumna thinks it is a great idea | 12:57 |
| geirdal | hehehe ok ;) | 12:57 |
| autumna | but anyway I think the critical thing really is that we are aware of our scale, and aim to be consistent with what we do so that we can regularly maintain it (and eventually recruit to do more) | 12:57 |
| autumna | we won't go from where we are, to blender style overnight. actually we won't be blender like at all for a very long time, because it is a project that has full time coders, funding etc. | 12:58 |
| autumna | but if we can do small things, the tutorials, updated resource, some videos and a small featured works section etc | 12:58 |
| geirdal | true | 12:58 |
| autumna | this is PLENTY. | 12:58 |
| autumna | but yeah | 12:59 |
| autumna | make no mistake even doing this, which looks tiny stuff on paper is HARD | 12:59 |
| autumna | and it will take time | 12:59 |
| geirdal | yes it will | 12:59 |
| geirdal | but its important | 12:59 |
| autumna | it is important | 13:00 |
| autumna | it will take time because these are things that kind of needs to evolve too over time | 13:00 |
| geirdal | true | 13:00 |
| autumna | you can't just go from nothing to a fantastic portfolio and functioning community. so we begin.. but we don't try to shortcut the process | 13:00 |
| autumna | we get its not going to be very... shiny, or elaborate at first | 13:00 |
| geirdal | of course not | 13:01 |
| geirdal | but we are getting there | 13:01 |
| autumna | yup | 13:04 |
| sakrecoer | i opened this to save the soundcloud group: https://soundcloud.com/ubuntustudio | 13:08 |
| sakrecoer | (soundcloud is discontinuing groups) | 13:09 |
| geirdal | there is alot we can use from this | 13:11 |
| autumna | *nods* | 13:11 |
| geirdal | sakrecoer, autumna Herbicide , yes | 13:13 |
| geirdal | works for me to paint | 13:13 |
| sakrecoer | :) | 13:14 |
| autumna | hehe | 13:14 |
| autumna | hmm sakrecoer! | 13:15 |
| sakrecoer | ? | 13:16 |
| autumna | I recognize some of these songs! | 13:16 |
| autumna | :) | 13:17 |
| sakrecoer | yeah... i took the hoel list in the group, didn't put all the ones i had shared in that group... | 13:17 |
| autumna | ah | 13:17 |
| geirdal | pinGnu | 13:18 |
| autumna | (ok now that we moved to devel we are now discussing off topic things *chuckles*) | 13:18 |
| geirdal | hehehehe | 13:18 |
| autumna | ok so we have the soundcloud | 13:18 |
| geirdal | I dont know the line | 13:18 |
| autumna | geirdal said he might have like 6 images to give for gallery | 13:18 |
| geirdal | I can can | 13:18 |
| autumna | my situation is more complicated since most of my work uses processing (which is not part of the default software list) | 13:19 |
| sakrecoer | we also have a flickr where people can share images by email | 13:19 |
| autumna | wait we have a flickr? | 13:19 |
| autumna | oh right, the background contest! | 13:19 |
| autumna | wallpaper* | 13:19 |
| sakrecoer | https://www.flickr.com/groups/ubuntustudiocreations/ | 13:20 |
| autumna | ok so correction | 13:21 |
| sakrecoer | i have this one the PR password file... cfhowlett opened it... | 13:21 |
| autumna | we do already have a gallery of sorts | 13:21 |
| sakrecoer | https://www.flickr.com/photos/creativelinux/ | 13:21 |
| sakrecoer | looks weird today... | 13:22 |
| autumna | yeah apparently somebody has posted something odd on top | 13:22 |
| autumna | out of curiosity, how many people submitted works, for the wallpaper challenge? | 13:23 |
| autumna | *tries to also find this information on the flickr group* | 13:23 |
| sakrecoer | i don't remember, but response was good... arround 20... | 13:23 |
| sakrecoer | might have been more.. | 13:23 |
| autumna | nice | 13:23 |
| autumna | and that was for wallpaper, so people were not submitting existing work, but doing new ones | 13:24 |
| sakrecoer | not sure if everyone created something specificaly for it, but most seemed like they did yes.. | 13:24 |
| autumna | actually I see a lot more than 20 entries in the poll | 13:25 |
| sakrecoer | :) | 13:27 |
| autumna | (and very few of them on flickr oddly enough) | 13:27 |
| autumna | but ok so the bottom line is | 13:28 |
| autumna | we actually have the communities in place | 13:28 |
| autumna | that's good | 13:28 |
| sakrecoer | yes :) | 13:30 |
| sakrecoer | ok, i have to go buy some stuff... i will be back in a few hours | 13:31 |
| autumna | bye sakrecoer! | 13:33 |
| geirdal | autumna, thasts very good | 13:33 |
| autumna | ok quick recap here because apparently i started typing things in PM instead of devel. | 13:33 |
| geirdal | ok | 13:33 |
| autumna | basically our forum looks like a support forum mostly | 13:33 |
| autumna | but it might be worth putting a sticky there saying "post your work" and then we can feature things from there | 13:34 |
| autumna | I was saying also that we could theorically move the forum, but it is hard to get people to use something new | 13:34 |
| autumna | sakrecoer said that we will probably have to ask somebody to make the thread sticky but that it wasn't hard. | 13:35 |
| autumna | (one of these days I am going to do something really embarassing like typing something something ubuntu studio related in a channel that really has nothing to do with US) | 13:39 |
| geirdal | hehe | 13:40 |
| sakrecoer | regarding murrine and shimmer. we keep murrine-themes and added numix-gtk-theme | 20:57 |
| sakrecoer | as it looks, we can customize numix to a blue color. upstream is going to provide us with the svg's to do it painfully. | 20:58 |
| sakrecoer | no.. to do it without pain :D | 20:59 |
| sakrecoer | https://github.com/numixproject/numix-gtk-theme/issues/508 | 20:59 |
| sakrecoer | now, if it is not done yet, and if we don't manage to have it done somehow, would it be ok with the group to use numix as default theme anyway instead of greybird, even though it has red highlight color? | 21:00 |
| sakrecoer | gosh.. i type worse than usual. | 21:00 |
| sakrecoer | corrected: "now, it is not done yet, and if we somehow don't manage to have it done in time, would it be ok with you guys to have numix as default theme instead of greybird, even though it has red highlight color?" | 21:01 |
| sakrecoer | autumna, geirdal, OvenWerks, zequence and anyone who wants to weight in :) | 21:04 |
| * autumna catches up with the transcript | 21:22 | |
| autumna | what needs to be done to change from red to blue? | 21:23 |
| sakrecoer | autumna: wait for svg assets... | 21:29 |
| autumna | I mean yes, my vote is for numix I think | 21:29 |
| autumna | I see | 21:29 |
| sakrecoer | then use sed to change the colors from red to blue | 21:29 |
| sakrecoer | i made a little bash script to change all colors and then transform the SVGs to PNGs.. | 21:30 |
| autumna | I wonder if it would even be possible to batch do it using imagemag- | 21:30 |
| * autumna chuckles | 21:30 | |
| autumna | alright then | 21:30 |
| sakrecoer | probably, but to find the right hue with imagemagick seems complicated to me... it would be sort of a guess, no? | 21:31 |
| sakrecoer | if we batch process the PNGs.. | 21:31 |
| autumna | umm you can probably type in the hue? | 21:31 |
| autumna | and colorize using it? | 21:31 |
| autumna | but I mean batch process is the point, it doesn't matter really what you use for it | 21:31 |
| sakrecoer | yes, but... what value, will turn that specific red into our specific blue? | 21:32 |
| sakrecoer | right | 21:32 |
| autumna | well if you colorize it | 21:32 |
| autumna | ok hang on let me talk out of my brain here | 21:32 |
| autumna | and either way if you have a script ready, it doesn't matter | 21:32 |
| sakrecoer | i'm up for it.. especially if the SVGs don't show up.. | 21:33 |
| sakrecoer | but, i don't know how to be precise with your method | 21:33 |
| sakrecoer | hopefully you do | 21:33 |
| autumna | OHH | 21:34 |
| autumna | ok for the record I am being very slow at the moment apparent | 21:35 |
| autumna | apparently | 21:35 |
| autumna | I am like literally taking a minute to figure out what you are saying :) and yeah let me try | 21:35 |
| autumna | do we want them ubuntustudio blue? | 21:35 |
| autumna | exactly? | 21:35 |
| autumna | also do you have a few more examples other than the round? | 21:35 |
| autumna | do they have shading? | 21:35 |
| sakrecoer | autumna: what is "the round"? | 21:36 |
| autumna | (also I remember there was a batch editor for gimp too.. but image magick would be much much easier) | 21:36 |
| sakrecoer | yes, they have shading | 21:36 |
| autumna | the radio button you linked at the github issue | 21:36 |
| sakrecoer | autumna: https://github.com/numixproject/numix-gtk-theme/tree/master/gtk-3.0/assets | 21:37 |
| sakrecoer | i have to go unfortunately... early morning tomorrow... g'night y'all! | 21:41 |
| autumna | bye | 21:42 |
| krytarik | autumna: I seem to have finally convinced sakrecoer to go with the Greybird blue (#398ee7) rather than the Studio one, btw :P - 1.) to fit better with the rest of the theming, and 2.) make it appealing for anyone else than us to use as well. | 21:50 |
| autumna | alright :) | 21:50 |
| autumna | I'll try to aim for that then | 21:50 |
| autumna | :) | 21:50 |
| krytarik | autumna: Notice there seems to be a darker shade of red they are using as well - we'd have to figure out a proper replacement for that too, and we were currently looking at what Greybird uses as the link color - #2d71b8. | 22:02 |
| autumna | well what I am trying to do is to use colorize | 22:02 |
| autumna | and where it gets me | 22:03 |
| autumna | if it doesn't work | 22:03 |
| autumna | next solution will probably have to involve gimp with batch plugin | 22:03 |
| autumna | and there it is about changing the hue rather than value | 22:03 |
| autumna | (I haven't ran into the darker red yet but sakrecoer mentioned it) | 22:04 |
| autumna | oh-kay that didn't go well :D | 22:06 |
| autumna | gimp it is | 22:06 |
| autumna | sakrecoer krytarik: I can almost match the icon color to graybird blue, (1 rgb value off which is not visible really) | 22:55 |
| autumna | well ok maybe more than 1rgb value I'll take another try at this in morning | 23:14 |
